Embodiment 1

[0212] Identify the causative gene for MMAF.

[0213] The present invention collects 27 cases of MMAF cases, all patients are infertile, and the tail deformity includes typical MMAF disease characteristics such as short tail, no tail, curly tail, bent tail and irregular tail width.

[0214] The present invention has carried out whole exome sequencing to all patients, and specific steps are as follows:

[0215] Sample preparation: Collect the peripheral blood of the patient and his parents and family members, use the kit to extract the genomic DNA in the peripheral blood leukocytes (QIAamp DNA Mini Kit 51304.Qiagen, USA), and use the NanoDrop 2000 to measure the concentration and purity of the DNA (Thermo Scientific , USA), the OD260 / OD280 of the genomic DNA of each sample obtained was between 1.7-2.0, the concentration was not less than 100ng / ul, and the total amount was not less than 30ul.

[0216] Then, the exome sequences of the above 27 samples were sequenced. The sequen...

Embodiment 2

[0225] The above-mentioned causative gene for MMAF was confirmed in other cases.

[0226] Next, the present invention includes all MMAF patients, and verifies that the DNAH1 gene is the pathogenic gene of MMAF. In the verification, the Sanger method was used to verify the mutation of the DNAH1 gene, and the verification of samples within the family, outside the family, and sporadic samples were considered.

Abstract

The invention discloses an MMAF virulence gene novel mutation and application thereof, and relates to virulence genes, novel mutation of an MMAF virulence gene DNAH1 is firstly found. A plurality of affected families and affected individuals of the MMAF are taken as study objects for sequencing and comparing exomes of the affected individuals in the families to find that DNAH1 genes of different patients have different gene mutations which are used for detecting various sperm tail paramorphia (MMAF).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a disease-causing gene, in particular to a novel mutation of the MMAF disease-causing gene and its application. Background technique [0002] Multiple morphological abnormalities of the sperm flagella (MMAF) is a recessively inherited teratozoospermia that causes male infertility. The sum of tail abnormalities, including short tails, tailless tails, curled tails, bent tails, and tails of irregular width. In the early research, there are also literatures calling this disease as dysplasia of the fibrous sheath (DFS), short tails, stump tails. Early researches on molecular pathogenesis in foreign countries found mutations in DNAH1 gene (1.Ben Khelifa M, Coutton C, Zouari R, Karaouzene T, Rendu J, Bidart M, Yassine S, Pierre V, Delaroche J, Hennebicq S, Grunwald D , Escalier D, Pernet-Gallay K, Jouk PS, Thierry-Mieg N, Toure A, et al. Mutations in DNAH1, which encodes an inner arm heavy chain dynein, lead tomato infertility from ...
